    • Hello,

      On 15/1/24 booked appointment with Big Motoring World (BMW) to view a mini on 17/1/24 at 8pm at their Enfield dealership.  

      Car was dirty and test drive was two circuits of roundabout on entry to the showroom.  Was p/x my car and rushed by sales exec and a manager into buying the mini and a 3yr warranty that night, sale all wrapped up by 10pm.  They strongly advised me taking warranty out on car that age (2017) and confirmed it was honoured at over 500 UK registered garages.

      The next day, 18/1/24 noticed amber engine warning light on dashboard , immediately phoned BMW aftercare team to ask for it to be investigated asap at nearest garage to me. After 15 mins on hold was told only their 5 service centres across the UK can deal with car issues with earliest date for inspection in March ! Said I’m not happy with that given what sales team advised or driving car. Told an amber warning light only advisory so to drive with caution and call back when light goes red.

      I’m not happy to do this, drive the car or with the after care experience (a sign of further stresses to come) so want a refund and to return the car asap.

      Please can you advise what I need to do today to get this done. 
       

      Many thanks

    • We have finally managed to obtain the transcript of this case.

      The judge's reasoning is very useful and will certainly be helpful in any other cases relating to third-party rights where the customer has contracted with the courier company by using a broker.
      This is generally speaking the problem with using PackLink who are domiciled in Spain and very conveniently out of reach of the British justice system.

      Frankly I don't think that is any accident.

      One of the points that the judge made was that the customers contract with the broker specifically refers to the courier – and it is clear that the courier knows that they are acting for a third party. There is no need to name the third party. They just have to be recognisably part of a class of person – such as a sender or a recipient of the parcel.

      Please note that a recent case against UPS failed on exactly the same issue with the judge held that the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 did not apply.

      We will be getting that transcript very soon. We will look at it and we will understand how the judge made such catastrophic mistakes. It was a very poor judgement.
      We will be recommending that people do include this adverse judgement in their bundle so that when they go to county court the judge will see both sides and see the arguments against this adverse judgement.
      Also, we will be to demonstrate to the judge that we are fair-minded and that we don't mind bringing everything to the attention of the judge even if it is against our own interests.
      This is good ethical practice.

      It would be very nice if the parcel delivery companies – including EVRi – practised this kind of thing as well.

We applied a DSAR on the RBS back in March 2008 and we received quite a lot of info (Although they still haven't fully complied).

 

But, a lot has happened since then (some of you will be aware).

 

The question I have is.....can we apply for a DSAR again?

 

I think that there will be loads of info on us dated between March last year and now.

 

Any advice would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

Well our letter of complaint has been sent to the bank.

 

After the letter that PW got back from the Chief Executive of RBS saying that

 

'We do not create accounts without the knowledge of our customers'

 

....you can imagine that our letter was changed slightly.

 

He either LIED or his staff LIED to him.

 

We have absloute proof that this is what they have done to us!

 

As soon as we have had a reply from them we will post it and we will post our original complaint letter (it's a bit long though!)

 

Still fighting

I work for a Solicitors office and it is fully insured and regulated by the Law Society.

 

I don't know whether they all have to be, but I would have thought all Solicitors have to be something to do with the Law Society seeing as this is how their qualifications are regulated, if I am not mistaken?

Thanks Josie

 

Any more confirmation of this would be great

If they are practising then they need to be members.

 

However suggest you ring the Law Society tomorrow and check it with them if you are in doubt

Here's a quote from Reuters today

 

'RBS said Monday it was on course to report a 2008 loss of up to 28 billion pounds'

 

No doubt they will be sending the bill to Paul Walton, Sparkie, Us and anyone else they can con!

Hi D & D,

 

Nice to see you are still fighting - and that you still have your sense of humour - I think I might have gone to the wall long before now...

 

Nothing surprises me these days and I believe that all of them will lie to either make their case - or protect their position!

 

Keep your peckers up - there will be an end one day.

We have sent another Official Letter of Complaint to the Bank. This was sent on the 8th Jan.

 

This refers to our prevoius letter of complaint sent in April 2008.

 

We have had abslotutely NOTHING back from them, not even an aknowledgment of our complaint!

 

The first letter we sent in April last year, they said that they never received, until it was pointed out to them that it was sent 'Recorded Delivery'. Then they admitted receiving it but that they had passed it to their solicitors for a response.

 

10 Months later we still haven't had a reply to this.

 

We are pretty sure that they won't reply to our latest complaint.

 

The regulatory bodies seem so much up the banks *r*es that they just won't do anything.

 

We are lucky like PW and Sparkie that our MP is on our case and is really starting to get f'd off with them

 

This fight will continue and we won't go away.

Alan Dickinson seems to be the main man in the UK.

 

He is the guy that replied to Paul's MP.

 

Is he just PR or has he got any authority?

Hi D

He's one of the "old" Board of directors that still has a job .....for now.

How the hell does that happen?? These are meant to be unbiased Government run bodies for the consumer. Why is there not an exclusion policy for being able to hold a position within these agencies?

In my youth I worked in a foundry where the shop steward was always pulling people out on strike, drove the company nearly to ruin. The management offered him a job as Personnel manager, bought him a suit and a car...the whole place quietened down...they change hats, suits and sides to suit their pockets..the company prospered thereafter from a strike less environment...tactics..says it all!
